I never could make a small pot of soup, and would freeze some, only to feel guilty later when I wanted some fresh.
What I do now is buy the Bear Creek soup mixes (they are SO good) and just make however much I need. Add cooked carrots, onion, broccoli or cauliflower, left over chicken or ham and make it your own. Good Stuff!
Once the weather gets cooler we even more so enjoy Punjabi daals/lentil soups or bean soups.They are our favorite for it is rich in flavor and it is healthy.
Throwing a ham in the oven NYE. I don't know if it's officially "soup", but a big ol' pot of ham and (pinto) beans, with cornbread, a couple of days after that.
Then a pot of split pea soup (husband's favorite).
I have two ham bones in the freezer, it's split pea time very soon, just need a few ham hocks..
it freezes well so I'm going to make a couple of gallons..
My soup is usually of the unglamorous "clean out the fridge of left-overs" sort. This week it was the left over turkey & a bag of frozen soup veggie mix, a can of tomatoes & an onion.
Make soup all. the. time. Up next? Black-eye pea & farro soup for the New Year. Made a fresh batch of veggie broth yesterday for the occasion.
